Interesting Development...
So this should be fun, or at least interesting. My mentor in court reporting has been communicating back and forth with me for some time now, and we've finally decided to meet up this coming week. The sort of scary part is that she wants me to bring my machine and sit up front and write during the proceedings! My great hope is to be able to designate some speakers and get a bunch of phrases, cuz I'm thinkin' that's about all I'm going to get! This will be at the Dane County courthouse this Tuesday afternoon, so wish me luck, and I'll keep you posted on how it all goes. Should be a great experience.
Other than that, just settling back into school life. Psyched because I had some help from an advisor with my degree audit, and short of getting my speeds, I think I'm only beholden to three more classes. I think I can manage to squeeze those in in the next couple semesters. What is it, business law and a racial tolerance class, oh joy. Forgive me, but I can't help but wonder why I need to be required to take a class in order to be polite and tolerant of people not of my culture or color. I realize I live a charmed and sheltered life, but I have compassion and tact, right? Can that be trained into a student in a mere semester? I'm puzzled. Letcha know how that goes at whatever point as well.
Huh, not much else to report, I'm afraid. Canoecopia's coming up soon, March 7-9, and it looks like we're working said marathon weekend again. The showguide is out and it looks fabulous. Maybe it's not in your mail yet, but it's printed, you'll see it soon. I do always love working the show, even through every last drop of physical exhaustion, I love it. Besides, we get Nick this year, and C-Vo will be helping out UB. Prince impersonations will ensue.
Ta!
